Abstract: A wireless tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) emulation device for a vehicle and a method of activating the device. The device has a memory, a microcontroller, a radio frequency transmitter, a trigger, an actuator and a power supply. The memory is adapted to have stored thereon a software module. The microcontroller is powered by a power supply, such as a battery, and is connected to the memory. The microcontroller is adapted to control a TPMS transmission signal indicative of an acceptable tire pressure signal, according to the software module. The radio frequency transmitter is connected to the microcontroller and is adapted to transmit the transmission signal. The trigger is connected to the microcontroller and is adapted to activate a TPMS sensor pairing of the emulation device for at least one tire of the vehicle. The actuator is connected to the microcontroller and is adapted to activate the emulation device.
